I wondered why people said "corn" for a long time. I have read it several times, in the past (in the NASB) to see why they would say that it said corn. I think that it was when I read one of your posts that I realized why.
Just for the record Kerry, corn doesn't mean corn on the cob it means a small seed. Corn is a seed of wheat or barley or any other type of grain.
corn (n.1)
"grain," Old English corn, from Proto-Germanic *kurnam "small seed" (cognates: Old Frisian and Old Saxon korn "grain," Middle Dutch coren, German Korn, Old Norse korn, Gothic kaurn), from PIE root *gre-no- "grain" (cognates: Old Church Slavonic zruno"grain," Latin granum "seed," Lithuanian žirnis "pea"). The sense of the Old English word was "grain with the seed still in" (as in barleycorn) rather than a particular plant.
corn (n.1)
Corn is a good example as to how language is continually evolving and changing. Say corn to an American today and they think Maize, big yellow seed cobs, but in ENgland we still say corn as a generic word to mean cereal crops, wheat barley etc.
From Dr Johnsons dictionary 1755
[SIZE=+2]Corn[/SIZE]. n.s. [corn, Sax. korn, Germ. It is found in all the Teutonick dialects; as, in an old Runick rhyme,
Hagul er kaldastur corna.

Then y'all some corny people. No I jest. As I said it means grain and it was translated as corn. There are others, but none of the new translations address it except maybe and just maybe the NKJV. The new translation are intended to move your faith away from the work of the cross and place it in what you do. that's why the devil is fighting the KJV and letting the others slide.
So which one is correct dc?
Gal 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
Gal 1:7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
Gal 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto a different kind gospel:
Gal 1:7 Which is not the same kind; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
The KJV improved the Greek to give more revelation to those verses. The Greek is vague, it just said it's not the "same kind". The KJV tells you that not only is not the same kind of gospel that was preaced, it is actually NO GOSPEL at all. More clarity is given in the KJV than the Greek.

The Greek is the correct and you are out of your mind if you think the Greek is vague brother as you have to read the whole book in context...Chapter 3 tells what Paul is discussing and it is any one who believes saved by faith and kept by works salvation.......a gospel of a DIFFERENT kind, which is not the SAME kind and it has no power to save or keep saved....
Again, someone who WORSHIPS the version would say the things you say and or argue!

The Greek makes it appear as if there are two gospels -> one gospel in verse 6 and another gospel of a different kind in verse 7.

Gal 1:7 Which is not the same kind; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

It all depends on how you define works.
Matthew 25:31-46 shows two groups standing in front of the judgment seat. ( sheep and the goats )
The first group helped those who were thirsty, hungry, poor, and in prison; He told them come to eternal life.
The second group did not help those who were thirsty, hungry, poor, in prison; He told them depart from Me to everlasting punishment.

No it doesn't........How about this......This IS KJV1611 which is not KJV1611...makes complete sense....
Context dictates and tells that Paul is amazed at their defection to a gospel that is not the same GOSPEL he has been preaching IE the one that SAVES......
I wont argue with you man...God inspired the GREEK...Not the ENGLISH and especially not 54 LIARS who teach heresy and Anglican religion based upon Catholic principles.
